Cd recorder continuation


Are all cd recorders able to use any blank disks for making copies?
If not is there still a big price discrepency between the different varieties of blanks?

I believe that you have to use CD-R AUDIO disks and make sure that it says AUDIO on the cd's . The Sony that I have will not accept regular cd-r's to record on.
I believe they all do but I do find best results for me are with the Mobile Fidelity Soundlab 24KT discs. Not the cheapest ($3.50 each; probably cheaper in bulk) but I have been recording for a few years now, leave many discs in the 6 disc changer in my car for months at a time and have never had any dropouts, skips, ill effects, etc. I had started with some cheapo Sony's and the dropouts and static were rediculous. I do believe you (usually) get what you pay for. My CD-R's do sound incredible (Alesis Masterlink CD Recorder, Walker Audio Valid Points, Shunyata Python PC and Hydra line conditioner)
Only the pro models allow you to use any blank CDR media. Consumer models only allow you to use music CDRs which cost more as well as limiting the number of digital copies that can be made.
No. All cannot use just any CD blank. Many recorders require usage of music type blanks. The price difference is not that much , but the selection is poor and getting harder to find. Some Music CDR's like Memorex would still not record on my Marantz recorder.

I bought a Tascam pro and it will use any type of blank.
Makes great CDR's even from Analog sources.
